Tim Cahill backs Usain Bolt's A-League experiment

The former Socceroo believes football fans should be positive about the athlete's trial

Socceroos legend Tim Cahill has urged perspective on Usain Bolt's A-League experiment, saying the trial should be supported until the Jamaican star is fully fit.

Bolt looked off the pace and appeared to struggle with his aerobic fitness during his debut for Central Coast Mariners in a friendly against a select XI last Friday night - a match which attracted an extraordinary crowd just shy of 10,000.
